O.S. No.65 of 2011) laid for partition and separate possession, wherein the defendants have resisted the suit, based on the Will involved in the testamentary original suit.

In terms of the compromise, the plaintiff in T.O.S. No.14 of 2014 is giving up his interest under the Will and consequently, the suit in T.O.S. No.14 of 2014 is withdrawn by the plaintiff therein.

3. Turning to Tr.C.S. No.35 of 2023, the same is compromised in terms of the Memo of Compromise. The parties and their counsel appeared before the court and upon interviewing them, this court is satisfied as to the genuineness of the execution of the Compromise Memo and also the legality of the same.
